Signed Lot Of 32 First Day Covers With 6 Mets 25th Anniversary
This is, very simply, one extraordinary collection of baseball signatures and memorabilia. First day covers, of course, are created by the United States Postal Service for the purpose of commemorating the first day a new stamp is issued or to commemorate a special event. They’re collector items in their own right. But when rare baseball autographs from baseball superstars are added and become either silk cache or hand illustrated first day covers, you’ve got the equivilent of one grand slam home run collection! Take the amazing grouping of the Amazin’ Mets celebrating their 25th anniversary, for example. Six of the first day covers play up the 17th day in April back in 1989 when the one-time “hapless” New York Mets proudly celebrated 25 years, including their two world championships. Each FDC is an adventure in signature discovery. From Duke Snider to Gary Carter, from Ron Swoboda, Joe Torre, Pete Rose and more, all these baseball autographs are clean and ink signed. The remaining 20 first day covers focus on various events in major league baseball history, each with corresponding signatures. There’s Don Sutton vs Phil Niekro, pitching together on one FDC; there are single signatures of Willie McGee and Steve Garvey; there’s even the Hall of Fame 1983 induction featuring Juan Marichal. On top of all that and much more, these first day cover envelopes either feature a hand drawn and numbered illustration of the baseball personality or a colorful silk cache baseball design. Score this remarkable first day cover collection. It’ll make every day feel like a real winner.
